Pros

If you're fresh out of college and want to learn/gain some real world work experience, then this is a great place for you. However I would advise only staying 2-3 years, that will give you a enough time to learn a decent amount and then get out of there. Depending on what department you land in, you may get lucky and end up with a great manager/team. Having great co workers is pretty much the only pro about this place. And those co workers come few at a time .

Cons

Where to begin... -Maxim doesn't know ethics are. -They promote based off of who you know NOT how qualified you may be -They treat internal employees like they are disposable. -Upper management makes all the money, while the people below them do all the grunt work, and don't receive a quarter of what they're making -Management is super petty. -They say that that strive to promote from within, but thats a joke. It will take you FOREVER to move through the ranks -The pay SUCKS. If you get a dollar raise in two years consider yourself one of the lucky ones. They are no where near market value. you can go work at a company down the road and make 8-10k more..EASILY -Management loves to say how well the company is doing..yet our merit/ bonus payouts are terrible. -They are not up to date with new technology, so sometimes its really difficult to get your job done. -The IT department is horrible, I really don't know what we pay them for. -Low tuition reimbursement -The company wide 401k match wont exceed $750 in one year, which is terrible (if you didnt know) -The turnover is insane, it only takes people a couple of months to realize how screwed up this place is and then they are running for the hills Overall advice to prospective candidates: Please don't have high expectations for this company.

We are sorry to read this review. Maxim has promoted many employees, particularly those with management experience, and those that received extensive training from our learning and development team. Turnover significantly decreased the past few years. Recognizing Maxim employees is prevalent across the country, especially when we present awards to caregivers and office employees yearly. Good luck in your future endeavors. Regards - Steven

Pros

I didn't think it was possible to be this impressed with a health-care company given the current state of the US healthcare system but here we are! They truly think of EVERYTHING to prepare and support you off site, in home and ongoing as you work independently. I am not used to that, I am use to being the one who always identifies the risks, voices concerns and ofter solutions as well as offering to help create change. I was hired into a position that I have only clinical experience with some of the skill. Even though I have confidence and excel at winging it when I have been thrown into something new by other companies, refreshing skills and q&a discussions about them to reinforce your knowledge BEFORE you even meet your new patient it feels like pampering tbh. Idc if I think I know everything, I want to know everything I can, EBP does change and any nurse who takes patient care as seriously as I do would welcome all the support. At the end of the day it's not about us, it's about the people who entrust us to provide their loved ones with the best possible care we can give them. I am thrilled to be joing a strong team and company that agrees. It feels like a whole different level of confidence and I am 💯 here for that!

Cons

Pros

The most flexible schedule you will ever get in Nursing! The patient and the families were also amazing to work with! When I was there, they also gave a $5000 sign on bonus and if you worked full-time, I think every three months you get $1000 bonus and then if you worked part-time and medicine a certain amount of hours every three months you would get a $500 bonus.

Cons

When they first hire you on, they will try to give you the worst patients. By this, I mean, the patient themselves are wonderful. However, the family of the patient is terrible. They will also make you drive very far to accommodate the patient. Don't worry, though if you stand your ground and tell them that you want a patient that is closer by they will give you the patient that is closer and if you voice that the patient's family is making you uncomfortable and YOU push to get another patient instead they will accommodate you as well.
